GLP-2 Reduces Gut Permeability But Doesn't Prevent Type 1 Diabetes in NOD Mice

evidence
The takeaway

GLP-2 reduced intestinal permeability in NOD mice but did not prevent type 1 diabetes onset, separating gut barrier repair from autoimmune diabetes prevention — gut healing alone doesn't prevent autoimmunity.
